Thats not a bad formula, so here's to future successes (wherever they are)! All the best. Dave |

Oh and I spoke to my migration agents today and HOPEFULLY we should at least get 50% of our fee refunded plus our fee to DIMIA so at least £1500 winging its way! Thanks so much for all of your support so far...it means a lot!!!! Lucy Is there a web site were you can do a points test for Canada ??? Mr Tabby |
Re: Our Plan B
Hi Lucy. All the best with wherever you end up. My niece loved Vancouver - tooooo cold for me though :cool: And even if you do decide on Canada, regardless of what some people say, you will always be very very welcome on this forum because your friends will always want to know how you are getting on ;) . Do not allow numpties to upset you, there are far more of us wishing you well :)

Exactly that - chin-up girlie, one idiot does not speak for the rest of us. Good luck for whatever you end up doing, having a plan B seems like a great option. You're still following a dream, just a modified one!! :) |
Re: Our Plan B
Hi Lucy
Have been following your saga over the last few weeks. You have a never give up attitude and will do well where ever you end up. My friends were in Vanvouver earlier this year and loved it. Good luck to you. Yv :) |
Re: Our Plan B
Hi Lucy
Great plan B. I find the Canadians warm and generous people and I've been lucky enough to have worked with them for 9 years in my current job, best of all they hate the Yanks just as much as us ;) . Been to Vancouver (95) and loved it, remember it as one of the cleanest tidiest cities I've ever been to and very cosmopolitan to boot. Close to the ski resort of Whistler (what I went for) which is one of the best in North America. I will always remember seeing the Whales blowing away as we drove back along the coastroad from Whistler to Vancouver. Stunning city, great people and a beautiful country. Hang on...do I see a Plan B for us forming too. :eek: All the very best for you and yours wherever you end up. Keep your chin up and don't let the bas**rds grind ya down :beer: |
Re: Our Plan B
Good for your girl! Could tell from your threads, that you'd bounce back! Vancouver's lovely, have family there and decided if I couldn't return to Oz, it'd be my next choice. :beer:

Thanks guys. That t*sser KingofCats really peed me off today, but now I know he was just a really hairy ole troll. Probably a 35 year old pervert with no girlfriend, unsightly body hair, a hair lip and still living at home! ( and a chronic masturbator!) :D |
Re: Our Plan B
